This week join Nicole and Noelle as they take a trip back to the turn of the century to when the world thought ingesting radiation was healthy! Learn about the Radium Girls and the luminescent clock faces they painted, their struggle against a big corporation, the desecration of their bodies due to radiation  poisoning and the outcome of their earth shattering law suit.
